Lap results and feeling hopeless 🥺

Olivia

Had my first lap and recovery for the first 5 days were horrific. Today is day 6 and I finally have relief and way more independent!

I was so hopeful going into the surgery that this would be the next step to finally getting pregnant. Unfortunately, I was left with more bad news. I have stage 4 endometriosis and was basically covered with adhesions. It covered my uterus, pelvic, cervix, bowels. I had so many adhesions that I had no mobility of my uterus. Was able to remove some, but not all adhesions. I had a 8 cm endometrioma on my right ovary that was removed and a general cyst on it as well that was removed. I was told that I have so much inflammation that it is not conducive for me to conceive naturally and should go straight to <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">ivf</a>. Doctor also expressed concern of being able to conceive through <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">ivf</a> due to the extent of my endo and it effecting my egg quality.

I am only 28 years old and I can’t believe I am facing this right now. I feel so alone and scared with this all. I am trying to find hope, but after all of this information it’s been hard to find.
